Summer Wedding Engagement Session // Gibson City, IL // Alexandria & Jake

Gibson City, IL Engagement Session

You know when you can see everything about everyone one social media and so you basically know, well, at least as much as they want to share πŸ˜‚ That’s how I have continued to follow Alexandra’s story over the years.

Alexandria and I attended the same high school and live in the same small town. Her daughter, Bella, is an absolute darling! We have the same story in not being with our children's fathers and trying to find that piece that makes the family complete.

And she found that in Jake. β™₯️

Seeing how the two of them can be goofy and serious is always my sign that this couple gets it! They just get each other and are just there when the other needs! Only disagreement seems to be farting πŸ˜†

They are also growing their family during this timeπŸ₯° One month before the wedding, they will be welcoming their child!

The two of them chose two spots that have family ties: a lake near Jake's grandparents home and the homestead of Alexandria's grandparents, where they will also be having their wedding ceremony! πŸ₯³

We ended our session with popping a bottle of Sparking Grape juice! 🍾 Not the same feels when you consume it, but it is bubbly and it is delicious! 😁
